“The program is really supportive and has given me specific tools that I can use right away and in the future to meet my specific nutritional needs.”

“I was able to raise my red and white blood count this past week so that I could do my chemotherapy on Wednesday. I am pretty sure it was due to paying better attention to my diet by not skipping meals.”

“Great to talk to someone and be able to message someone at any time to assist with questions. Program seems very personable and clients are not just numbers. I have valued my dietitian as my mentor through this process.”

“Every recommendation was easy to add to my diet and daily self care practice. Every suggestion simply made sense. I think of this as a sustainable upgrade.”

Cancer treatments like chemotherapy and hormone therapy can take a significant toll on the body, causing side effects like nausea, fatigue, brain fog, and digestive issues. However, with the right nutrition and gut health strategies, these side effects can be managed, and patient well-being can be significantly improved.

In our pilot program with Roper St. Francis Healthcare, Ixcela’s registered dietitians used data-driven insights from Ixcela’s gut microbiome blood test to develop hyper-personalized nutrition and lifestyle plans. The results have been remarkable.

📊 Key outcomes from the pilot program:
7.02 fewer days of fatigue per month for participants.
4.8 fewer days of brain fog per month reported by patients.
42% reduction in the use of anti-nausea medications among active treatment participants.
57% reduction in the use of anti-constipation medications among active treatment participants.
86% of patients reported improvements in overall well-being.
68% of patients noted better sleep quality during the pilot program.

Beyond these statistics, patient testimonials revealed the true impact of our approach. One patient noted, “The program is really supportive and has given me specific tools that I can use right away and in the future to meet my specific nutritional needs.” This personalized guidance empowered patients to take control of their health, even during the most challenging parts of their treatment.

Dr. Megan Baker, COO of Roper St. Francis Healthcare, emphasized the importance of nutrition in cancer care: “Ixcela empowers our patients to participate in their healthcare. Focusing on food choices allows them to mitigate side effects and improve their treatment outcomes.” By focusing on gut health, Ixcela’s program provides cancer patients with a tangible, effective way to enhance their treatment journey.

💡 Why Gut Health Matters: Cancer treatments can disrupt the gut microbiome, which is crucial for digestion, immunity, and even mental clarity. Ixcela’s approach uses data from a simple blood test to pinpoint specific imbalances and create targeted strategies to restore gut health. This helps patients manage side effects such as nausea, bloating, and fatigue, while also improving overall wellness.

Our collaboration with Roper St. Francis Healthcare is just the beginning. With the success of this pilot program, Ixcela is excited to bring these results to more patients nationwide. We are committed to helping cancer patients thrive by optimizing gut health and enhancing recovery.

Drinking tons of water but still experiencing symptoms of under-hydration? 💧

Before you keep chugging, make sure you're getting enough electrolytes!!

Electrolytes like sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium, help the water you're drinking get into your cells and effectively hydrate your body. If you're only replacing water lost in the body and not electrolytes, your body's fluid balance can be thrown off and can cause more harm than good.

Optimal hydration is extremely important for improving tolerance to chemotherapy for cancer, promoting digestive health, and balancing hormones.

At Ixcela, our registered dietitians will support you in a hydration routine that works for your lifestyle and unique goals.
